Now, I know everyone would say they support all of them... so I like to propose a challenge to it.Given that 15 years may not be enough to actually deal with all of them, which 7 goals would you like to have been reached?it's a tough choice to limit yourself to just 7...

this is what has become my shortlist...Good health and well-beingQuality educationClean water and sanitationAffordable and clean energyresponsible consumption and productionClimate actionPeace and justice strong institutions

A number of the items on the list are either special cases, dependent on or over-lapping others. There's also the problem of a number of them being, in my opinion, unattainable.

Take poverty, for example.

How is it defined?

There are two forms of poverty - dynamic and static.

The former occurs when you hit a bad patch in your life but recover from it. This can be a normal consequence of economic fluctuations.

The latter is "real" poverty - it's long-term, in the sense that it tends to be generational: you fall into long term poverty from which you don't recover, your children either are born into and/or grow up in poverty, along with your grand-children, etc. Due to having fallen into a lower strata of society, you lack the opportunities and social network to help you and your family to climb out of poverty.

This is the form of poverty which needs to be addressed.

However, there will always be the dynamic form of poverty - regardless of whether static poverty is eradicated or not.

This is a case of over-lapping or subordinate issues - poverty is itself a example of inequality, so reducing inequality would automatically encompass poverty as well as the special case of gender inequality.
